This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Wanted to let me friends know that my wife, Carol, passed away yesterday afternoon unexpectedly. She had just got what she had wanted for many years, a grandchild, who was two months old yesterday.

    She has shared my passion for Buicks for a long time and accompanied me to every GSCA Nationals and BPG meets for the past 24 years. I'm going to miss her.

    Please say a prayer for her.

    One of my brothers and his wife recently informed my parents that they are expecting their(my parents) first grandchild in June. So, I can imagine how happy that type of news made your wife.

    I'll be praying for you as well.

    Larry,
    So sorry to hear this sad news. Your wife was a wonderful woman and I enjoyed talking with her at the Buick events when you were showing off your beautiful cars to other enthusiasts. She did share that Buick passion with you and will always be with you. I'm glad she was able to spend sometime with her first grandchild while she was here. A prayer will go out to you and yours.

    Please accept my sympathy for your loss. It was a joy to have known Carol, and I consider myself a better person for having known her. She will be sorely missed.

    Should you need anything, please let me know. I am right around the corner, and willing to assist in any way I can.

    Sincerest condolences, Jim
